What's the difference between auriculated and gastropod?
Auriculated
Definition:
(a.) Having ears or appendages like ears; eared. Esp.: (a) (Bot.) Having lobes or appendages like the ear; shaped like the ear; auricled. (b) (Zool.) Having an angular projection on one or both sides, as in certain bivalve shells, the foot of some gastropods, etc.
Example Sentences:
(1) Composite autografts of skin and cartilage from the auricule are useful in the reconstruction of defects in many areas of the head and neck.
(2) In cases of dermal sinuses derived from the first branchial clefts an additional incision was made along the posteroinferior border of attachment of the auricule to the skull.
(3) The distribution territories of the posterior auricular artery of the dog, being similar to those of the cat, were not only the auricule but also the muscles of the mastication, the salivary glands, the middle ear and the retromandibular regions.
(4) The following criteria of the myocardial insufficiency were revealed on myocardial fragments of the human auricule tissue (auricula atrii) removed in correction of the valvular cardiac defects: 1) fall of the contraction amplitude in the rhythmic row even with the stimulation frequency of 1--3 Hz (normal mycadrium is characterized by increased contraction amplitude--positive Bowdwitch steps) 2) monophasic character of the frequency-force curve (in a normal myocardium the curve is three-phasic in shape); 3) the absence of positive or the appearance of negative inotropic effect in response to reduction of the external Na concentration or removal of K ions from the solution.
Gastropod
Definition:
(n.) One of the Gastropoda.
Example Sentences:
(1) The eyes of certain marine gastropods including Aplysia and Bulla, contain circadian pacemakers, which produce a circadian rhythm of autogenous compound action potential (CAP) activity.
(2) Escherichia coli transformed with a plasmid carrying the RuBisCO operon of the gastropod symbiont in the proper orientation for transcription from the plasmid lac promoter expressed catalytically active RuBisCO.
(3) Parelaphostrongylus tenuis infections were found in 15 gastropods (2.2% prevalence) representing 5 species; 5 of the infected gastropods were D. laeve.

(5) The fluorescent dye 5(6)-carboxyfluorescein (5-CF) travels quickly up the nerves of the gastropod mollusc, Lymnaea stagnalis into the buccal ganglia and fills the cell bodies in 1-3 h. 5-CF filled neurones can be located in the intact ganglia with low intensity blue light.
(6) The structure and function of the digestive gland of the gastropod mollusc, Bithynia tentaculata, was investigated using ultrastructural, histochemical, and cytochemical techniques.
(7) We have begun the study of the molecular and cell biology of embryos, larvae and recruits having as a final goal, the development of appropriate biotechnologies to rear this gastropod.
(8) The marine gastropods Acmaea (Collisella) limatula and Acmaea (Notoacmea) scutum respond to distant predatory starfish (i.e.
(9) Immunocytochemical methods using an antiserum raised against ovine corticoliberin revealed perikarya and processes in the central and peripheral nervous system of the Pulmonate Gastropod Helix pomatia.
(10) The distribution of monoamines in the central ganglia of the nudibranch gastropod Hermissenda crassicornis was examined through the histological localization of both glyoxylic acid-induced fluorescence and serotonin-like immunoreactivity.
(11) The hemocyanins of the Fissurellidae, Naticidae and Melongenidae families of marine gastropods as well as some other molluscs including some members of the Opistobranchia and Bivalvia groups have hemocyanins which exist in solution as tri-decameric and mixed, multi-decameric aggregates characterized by sedimentation coefficients close to 100 S, 130 S, 150 S, 170 S and 200 S to 230 S. 2.
(12) The accumulation of cadmium, zinc and copper by the marine gastropod molluscs Patella vulgata and Patella intermedia has been studied by gel permeation chromatography of water-soluble extracts of environmentally contaminated shellfish.
(13) The effect of antipsychotic drugs was tested on responses to micro-electrophoretically applied dopamine, acetylcholine and 5-hydroxytryptamine in identified neurons of the marine gastropod Aplysia californica.
(14) The distribution of FMRFamide-like material in the gastropod mollusc, Helix aspersa, was studied by radioimmunoassay (RIA) and immunocytochemistry.
(15) The local anesthetic effects of cocaine and one of its main metabolites norcocaine, were investigated comparatively on isolated ganglion cells of the marine gastropod, Aplysia californica.
(16) Previous research suggests that gut distension by ingested bulk plays an important role in the regulation of food intake in gastropod molluscs.
(17) Hemocytes taken from six different gastropod snails, Achatina achatina, A. fulica, Biomphalaria glabrata, Bulinus natalensis, Helix aspersa, and Lymnaea stagnalis, were compared for morphology, peroxidase activity, and, using methods developed for L. stagnalis, the ability to generate reactive oxygen inermediates upon phagocytic stimulation.
(18) The total amount of retinochrome in the retina was several times higher than that of rhodopsin, distinguishing the gastropod eye from the cephalopod eye.
(19) Among the known intermediate filament proteins, NF60 and NF70 neurofilament proteins show highest similarity to an epithelial intermediate filament protein from Helix pomatia, a gastropod mollusk, and are less similar to vertebrate neurofilaments.
(20) Aposymbiotic Aiptasia polyps reinfected with zooxanthellae from the gastropod Melibe pilosa and the clam Tridacna maxima grew no better than polyps lacking zooxanthellae.
